The '''energy dagger''' is an energy melee weapon employed by the [[Sangheili]] warriors. It is mounted on the wrist of most Sangheili combat armor, and is used to carry out [[assassination]]s.<ref name="RE">''[[Halo: Reach]]''</ref> These daggers were only used by a handful of [[Covenant fleet]]s, though it is unclear as to why they were not ubiquitous.<ref>''[[Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual]]'', p. 183</ref> | |||
==Design details== | |||
The design bears much resemblance to the [[Type-1 energy sword]]. Unlike the Energy Sword, however, it ends in a single point as opposed to the dual prongs of the Energy Sword. It appears to be mounted to a device worn on the wrists of the user. It is possible to use two daggers simultaneously, with one on each wrist.{{Ref/Reuse|RE}} | |||
